Dumping grey tanks
I have a simple question on the GD Transcend 245 RL 2021 Xplor package. I understand there are 2 gray tanks
1 kitchen sink drains into and the other tank 2 the bathroom sink and shower drain into. Now when you dump
your gray water tanks do you have to relocate the drain hose to a different outlets to drain each tank?

On that camper they're probably using the same dump outlet. Hard to see in pictures, though. But since they're so close together, that would make sense. On campers where the bathroom is on the opposite end from the kitchen there are two grey dump valves.

If you have two gray tanks, you likely have two sewer hose connections. On our 28MKS, one gray tank is at the rear and is for the kitchen The other sewer connection is at the middle of the camper and serves the black and gray tank that are for the bathroom. If you are at a dump station, you simply dump the bathroom tanks then move the hose to the other connection to dump. At a full hookup campground, one solution to dealing with multiple sewer connections & tanks is to get several sewer hoses and connect them with a wye.
If it is helpful, you can check out our posts and videos covering our setup for two sewer connections as well as the parts we added to be able to store the extra hoses.2018 Grand Design Transcend 28MKS

You will probably have a single outlet for both grey and black. On my Imagine 2970RL I have a single connection/outlet for all 3 tanks.
Edit to qualify the following statement since it was not accurate:
You will, generally but not always, see more than one outlet in the rear bath and rear kitchen models such as the Imagine 2250RK.Last edited by OurNewEra; 02-08-2021 at 09:02 AM.

It's interesting to hear about all the camper models that have two gray and one black tank but only have one sewer connection. Wish ours was like that as it would make things much less complicated.
For those that have two gray tanks and a single outlet, is there anything special you need to do when dumping? Or does it work just like you only have one tank?
Thanks.2018 Grand Design Transcend 28MKS
